(Bambu A1) Any idea why its not printing my extruded text? Blue = cad model (0.8mm high). Green = what Bambu sees on initial load. But when I slice it & Preview it becoms flat top (red). And thats also how it printed physically.
Have any Bambu-ites found a 3DP good forum to ask specifics like this?

I'm not seeing that. This is sketch text, exploded, then extruded 0.8mm. As you can see there are four layers of text after slicing. How are you generating the extrusion?

Maybe a Solidworks thing? Its just a plain vanilla font. I increased size to 14 pt just now as a second test but the physical size should be sufficiently larger than the 0.2 step resolution. It looks correctly extruded & I confirmed its adding it onto the main block body. My point is that within Bambu Studio the initial green preview (prepare step) shows the STL just like the SW CAD file just fine. But when I invoke Slice, it planes the text off (red). And that's how it physically prints

I'd like to try slicing and printing that. Can you post the stl?
Compress the file and post the zip.
